On December 21 1985, Madonna won 7 Billboard Music Awards: Top Pop Artist, Top Pop Album Artist – Female, Top Pop Singles Artist, Top Pop Singles Artist – Female, Top Dance Club Play Artist, Top Dance Sales Artist and Top Music Video (Madonna – The Videos).
Of course that was a long time ago! I discovered Madonna through word of mouth! Here I WAS a Rock Radio listener discovering Madonna! Top 40 or hit radio was no help to me at all! I just knew that Madonna was the best thing to happen to rock & roll in a long long time!
